    Model-Based Fault Diagnosis of the Gas Exchange System in a Turbocharged Gasoline Engine

    , Ph.D. Dissertation Sharif University of Technology Salehi, Rasoul (Author) ; Alasty, Aria (Supervisor) ; Vossoughi, Gholamreza (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    Proper operation of a spark ignition engine is required by comfort demands of a vehicle driver and governmental legislations. Therefore it is essential to monitor, within an online technique, the engine and detect any fault which disrupts its operation. The gas exchange path (including the intake and exhaust subsystems) is an important part of turbocharged engines responsible for accurate control of both engine power and emissions. Monitoring the path for fault detection and isolation (FDI) has been always demanded due to many failures it may face since the turbocharger exasperates the harsh working conditions for components involved in the path. This paper presents a novel model-based... 

    Robust Controller Design for Three-Dimensional Overhead Crane System with Variable Cable Length

    , M.Sc. Thesis Sharif University of Technology Khoshnazar, Mohammad (Author) ; Moradi, Hamed (Supervisor)
    Abstract
    The main goal of controlling overhead crane systems is to safely transfer the load to its desired position with maximum speed and accuracy, as well as to minimize or eliminate load oscillations. The overhead crane system is considered as an underactuated mechanical system in which the number of control inputs (actuators) is less than the number of degrees of freedom. In addition, overhead crane systems are generally associated with parametric or unmodeled uncertainties. Also, in these systems, external disturbances such as wind have a destructive effect on the system's performance. In addition, if the overhead crane has the hoisting mechanism and the length of the rope changes as the trolley... 

    A Second-Order Sliding Mode Observer for Fault Detection and Isolation of Turbocharged SI Engines

    , Article IEEE Transactions on Industrial Electronics ; Volume 62, Issue 12 , June , 2015 , Pages 7795-7803 ; 02780046 (ISSN) Salehi, R ; Vossoughi, G ; Alasty, A ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    This paper proposes a novel method for detection and isolation of wastegate (WG) faults in a turbocharged (TC) gasoline engine. This paper starts with a fault effect analysis on the WG faults, including WG stuck open and stuck closed, which is an early step in a detection strategy design. Then, a second-order sliding-mode observer (SOSMO) is proposed to capture the exhaust manifold dynamics. The observer uses experimentally validated engine models to estimate the WG position and a virtual force. The virtual force represents the external disturbances that disrupt the WG operation and enables the proposed SOSMO to estimate the WG position robust to the faults. Using this force, a detection and... 

    Global Finite Time Stabilization of a Class of Uncertain MIMO Nonlinear Systems

    , Article Journal of Dynamic Systems, Measurement and Control, Transactions of the ASME ; Volume 138, Issue 2 , 2016 ; 00220434 (ISSN) Abooee, A ; Moravej Khorasani, M ; Haeri, M ; Sharif University of Technology

    Abstract
    It is aimed to obtain global finite time stabilization of a class of uncertain multi-input-multi-output (MIMO) nonlinear systems in the presence of bounded disturbances by applying nonsingular terminal sliding mode controllers. The considered nonlinear systems consist of double integrator subsystems which interact with each other. In the proposed methods, new terminal sliding surfaces are introduced along with design of proper control inputs. The terminal sliding surfaces are defined such that the global finite time stability of sliding mode dynamic is attained. The control inputs are designed to steer the states into sliding motion within finite time and retain them on the terminal sliding...

    Abstract
    Atomic force microscope (AFM) can be used as nanorobotics manipulation tool for nano particle positioning, pushing, indenting, cutting and etc. control the vibration behavior of AFM and make the micro-cantilever tip track specified trajectory is very crucial to appropriately manipulate particles in nano-scales. The novel combined sliding mode approach has been investigated in this paper to obtain robust nonlinear control scheme for nanomanipulation. First (classical) and second order (SOSM) sliding mode techniques have been developed and applied to nonlinear dynamical and uncertain model of AFM cantilever beam to track the desired trajectories. The simulation results show chattering in...
